Ingredients

  • 3tbsp sunflower, rapeseed or other mild vegetable oil
  • 1tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 medium onions, finely chopped
  • 2 medium plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded and finely chopped
  • 6-8 Anaheim peppers or other long, thin fresh green chilli peppers

Method

In a small bowl, make a vinaigrette by whisking together the oil, vinegar and lemon juice and season with salt and black pepper. Or simply shake the ingredients together in a sealed jar.

In a mixing bowl, place the onions and tomatoes, pour over the vinaigrette and toss.

Wearing rubber gloves, slit open the peppers in a T-shape along the length of one side. Using a tsp, carefully remove and discard the seeds. Holding the flaps open with the spoon, fill the peppers with the onion and tomato mixture until quite full. Arrange on a platter and serve.
